Awesome looking truck. If you don't mind me asking, how much did the materials for the front bumper cost you? I'm looking into making one similar.

Ok thanks. I think I might add some tubing for a small brush guard on mine.

That's a heck of a deal compared to the $1400+ for the road armor types That and it's just more fun to do it yourself. Looking good so far!

Great job on the bumper. Makes the truck look a lot more serious.
